• Any staff member receiving such a complaint must immediately report the behavior/conditions to his/her immediate supervisor and/or the Title IX or ADA/504 Coordinator.

• A conference will be held with the complainant and appropriate school personnel to arrive at a mutually satisfactory resolution of the complaint or grievance.
